Calabash | A South Carolina resident was charged Wednesday with trafficking narcotics in Brunswick County, according to a Brunswick County Sheriff's Office release.

Kyle Whitney Anderson, 27, of Long Shadow Lane, North Charleston, was stopped and arrested on N.C. 17 in Calabash, according to the release. Deputies found 174 grams – or about a third of a pound – of MDMA in his vehicle, the release said. The drugs – also known as ecstasy or molly – had a street value of more than $27,000, according to the sheriff's office.

After the stop, the North Charleston Police Department executed a search warrant at Anderson's residence and seized a kilogram – a little more than 2 pounds – of MDMA, according to the release.

Anderson's charges include possession with intent to distribute MDMA, maintaining a vehicle or dwelling for the manufacture of a controlled substance and two counts of trafficking MDMA. He is being held in the Brunswick County jail with bail set at $100,000.
